Sea of Thieves is out soon, been watching some youtubers playing the final code with envy, it looks a lot of fun(not to mention that water, those waves and that lighting...) but I feel a bit too old for online multiplayer these days... as Jack says in the vid below the perfect game for a group of mates to play online together.
I'm 51 and have been playing/ testing it for the last year, so you are never too old ;)
You do really need mates to play it with, or at least people you can trust, as the single player version, still online, is bloody hard work. Load canons, make sure you have bananas and wooden planks, set the sail, raise anchor and then steer...remembering where you are going via the compass or checking the map, which is downstairs...and that's before you start exploring, fighting etc etc...running to a canon to get off a shot at another boat whilst your ship wildly rolls the waves is exhilarating. You'll die. A lot. But in a good way.
With other players you can each do a job...which makes the game a hell of a lot easier.
Out on the 20th. 50 quid. Cheaper on cdkeys.
I'd wait until some first impressions are out.
